Heat Transfer in Cooking: Conduction, Convection, and Radiation Explained #3496896 (License: Personal Use)

The image depicts a pot on a flame, with labeled arrows indicating radiation (a) from the flame outward, conduction (b) through the pot’s walls and lid, and convection (c) as circulating currents within the heated liquid. Bubbles rising indicate boiling, and temperature gradients are shown via color shading (red = hot, blue = cooler).

Used in educational science or culinary physics content to explain thermodynamics in everyday cooking; matches user intent for understanding how stovetop heating works.
